Velocity of Oxygen Transfer and Erythrocyte Rheology

N Maeda and T Shiga

Rheological properties of erythrocytes relate to the oxygen transfer to tissues in microcirculation. Erythrocytes deform by externally applied physical forces. The deformability modifies the pathway of oxygen diffusion inside the microvessel. The rate of oxygen release from flowing erythrocytes in a single microvessel is determined spectrophotometrically under the microscope.
